A reference is an instance of an Base Object. Usually, this means that the object has been placed in the Render Window, although references can also be created at runtime by scripts (for example, the PlaceAtMe() function) or by other game systems (for example, many spells create Explosions).

Each base object can have multiple references (the count of references is displayed in the Object Window). If any of the properties of a base object are changed in the Object Window, all its references are also changed in-game. However, references also hold some data that is unique to the reference. The simplest example is the reference's position: it's unique for each reference, and is not stored with the base object's data in the Object Window.

If you double-click on an object in the Render Window, you will see its reference data. Different types of objects have different reference data on their references. Different references of the same object can be set differently.

All References are treated as ObjectReference Scripts. References can also be cast to their specific subtype, so references of Actors are also Actor Scripts.

Reference Data[edit | edit source]

Common Data[edit | edit source]

  • Reference Editor ID: An optional text name that makes it easier to refer to this object in scripts and from other places in the editor. If a name is assigned to this reference, it will appear with this name in the Cell View Window.
  • Base Object: The base object that this reference points to can be changed by clicking "Edit Base".
  • Encounter Zone: The Encounter Zone is this reference is attached to. If an encounter zone is not explicitly specified, the object will inherit the Encounter Zone of its Cell, if any. The Encounter Zone is primarily used by Leveled Lists in determining the strength of their creatures or objects.
  • Turn Off Fire: Not used in Skyrim. Functionality may not be supported.
  • No AI Acquire: AI will not attempt to pick up containers or objects marked with this flag.
  • Initially Disabled: The reference starts disabled ("not there") and must be enabled through script or game events before it will appear.
  • Hidden From Local Map:The reference will not be displayed on the local map.
  • Inaccessible: Only available for Doors. If checked, the door will be inoperable and will show "Inaccessible" when rolled over. This overrides any lock level setting on the door.
  • Open by Default: For Doors and Containers, if checked, the door or object will begin in the open state.
  • Motion Blur: Not used in Skyrim. Functionality may not be supported.
  • High Priority LOD: (?) Brings reference to the front of the LOD loading hierarchy. Object will fade out last and fade in first.
  • Starts Dead: For actors, a corpse is placed instead
  • Respawns: If unchecked (when possible) this object will not respawn even if the cell it is in should do so.
  • Reflected by Auto Water: Toggles whether the endless water plane in exterior cells reflects the reference. This was not used in Skyrim. Functionality
  • Ignored by Sandbox: Check this box to prevent Sandboxing NPCs from attempting to use this reference. Useful for furniture and idle markers.
  • Is Full LOD: Reference will not fade from a distance. Good to apply to very large objects or lighting where fading out would feel obvious and awkward. Warning: Can impact performance if over-used.
  • Don't Havok Settle: This object, if havokable, doesn't initially settle itself when the cell is finished loading. Note that if any objects near the object settle, this object will settle regardless of this flag. (For Arrows in targets, etc...)

Reference Data Tabs[edit | edit source]

3D Data[edit | edit source]

The X, Y, and Z position and rotation values are displayed and can be directly edited. The scale of the reference relative to the base object can be adjusted as well. Note that objects cannot be scaled up more than 10x, or down by more than 100x.

  • Test Radius: Entering a value in this field will cause a radius to be displayed around the reference in the Render Window. This is useful when trying to estimate distances for packages and scripts. Set this field back to 0 to remove the radius.

Patrol Data[edit | edit source]

Only available on Idle Markers and Furniture. Allows you to specify how long a patrolling actor stays at this patrol point, and a dialogue topic to say when they arrive.

The Result Script field is no longer used.

Teleport[edit | edit source]

Available on Doors, this field allows you to link one door reference to another door reference anywhere in the world. All teleport links are bidirectional; the other door reference is automatically set to point back to this door. Setting a teleport also creates a yellow teleport marker at each door. This is where Actors passing through the door will appear.

  • No Alarm: This checkbox was added with version 1.6.89 of the Creation Kit. It's purpose is currently unknown.

Lock[edit | edit source]

Only available on Doors and Containers, this tab allows you to set whether the object is locked, the difficulty of the lock, and the key for the lock (if any).

Leveled Locks are not normally used in Skyrim. A leveled lock starts with the specified lock level when the player is level one, and becomes harder as the player's level increases.

Persist Location[edit | edit source]

For Actors, the Location where this object is Persistent. Defaults to the current cell's location, which is usually correct.

Ownership[edit | edit source]

The Actor or Faction that owns the object. If no owner is specified, the object will be owned by the Actor or Faction that owns its Cell, if any.

If the object is owned by a Faction, you can also specify a minimum rank in the Faction needed for someone to own the object, although Skyrim's Factions do not use the rank system.

Leveled Actor[edit | edit source]

This tab only appears for references that are Actors templated (directly or indirectly) to a LeveledCharacter List. Note again that LeveledCharacters cannot be placed into the world directly.

This tab allows you to set the relative difficulty of this particular Actor. In conjunction with the LeveledCharacter List and the Cell's Encounter Zone, this determines the actual level of the creature that will be produced. See the LeveledCharacter page for more details.

Extra[edit | edit source]

A collection of miscellaneous values used by a wide variety of object types.

  • Count: The number of objects represented by the reference. Like when the player drops multiple items of the same type, only one physical object will be shown in the world.
    • As a special case, note that if you have an Arrow reference, and specify a count greater than one, a quiver will appear to contain the arrows. The quiver is not an independent object, and this is the only way in which it can be created.
  • Health: Not used.
  • Charge: For enchanted Weapons, the amount of Charge they begin with. If not specified, the object will begin fully charged.
  • Time left: Not used.
  • Alpha cutoff: For some objects, a numeric value used to determine how much of the object should be shown or hidden. This value is most often used for banners and carpets, allowing them to appear more or less tattered.
  • Time left: Not used.
  • Soul: Not used.
  • Radiation: Not used.
  • Radius: For Map Markers, the radius around the marker at which the player discovers the location. Represented in the Render Window by a yellow circle.
  • Head-Tracking Weight: Not used.
  • Favor Cost: Not used.
  • Horse: For Actors, allows you to select the Horse this Actor will ride.
  • Sky Marker: For XMarkerHeadings, flags this marker as a point in the air that can be used in a Dragon's flight path.

Reflected By[edit | edit source]

Not used.

Linked Ref[edit | edit source]

References can be connected to other references through a system of Linked Refs. Linked Refs can be 'named' (assigned an identifying keyword) or 'unnamed' (the default; effectively, they use the NONE keyword). Each Reference can have only one Linked Ref per keyword.

Chains of linked references are commonly used to set up patrols (see Patrol Package). They can also be useful for scripted purposes (see GetLinkedRef).

Activate Parents[edit | edit source]

A reference can be set up to have one or more Activate Parents. These are references which will "pass on" an activation event to this reference when they are activated.

  • Delay: The number of seconds to wait after the parent's activation before activating this reference.
  • Parent Activate Only: If this is checked, this reference can ONLY be activated by an Activate Parent- direct activation (e.g. by the player) will not be possible. Scripts can always activate the object, regardless of this flag.
  • Note: Containers appear to be bugged and cannot be activated through any activate parent.

Enable Parent[edit | edit source]

A reference can have an Enable Parent reference, which is set in this tab. When the parent is Enabled or Disabled, so are all of its children. If Set Enable State to Opposite of Parent is checked, then the reference will be enabled when the parent is disabled, and vice versa.

This can be useful in instances where you are enabling or disabling a larger number of objects at once: you can simply enable or disable the parent, and simplify your code considerably.

Note that references with an Enable Parent cannot be enabled or disabled independently of their parent, even through script. Their disable/enable state is always determined by their enable parent.

Emittance[edit | edit source]

Rarely used, Emittance refers to the color emitted by an object, such as glow effects that need to look a certain color.

If the Emittance is set using the Interior Light dropdown, then the color will not change. However, if it it set with the Exterior Light dropdown, the Emittance will change in accordance with the daylight of the region chosen.

Multibound[edit | edit source]

By default, objects will be rendered in the Room Bound that contains their center point. This tab allows you to override this default and specify a Room Bound in which the object should be rendered instead. This is useful for especially large objects (such as water planes) and when portalling complex or organic environments.

Navmesh Import Option[edit | edit source]

Allows you to accept the Navmesh Generation Import Option from the base object, or to override it for this reference.

Attach Ref[edit | edit source]

Allows you to synchronize the motion of this reference to another reference with a specifically created animation. Not used.

Location Ref Type[edit | edit source]

Allows you to select a LocRefType for this object.

Scripts[edit | edit source]

Allows you to add, remove, or set the properties of Papyrus scripts on this reference.
